Chapter 46: The Prince's Reply (1)
Shen Jinqiao looked at Huo Changfeng and got angry when he wanted to hear a good show, and she had to inquire about everything, so she didn't tell him.
Huo Changfeng clasped his hands together: "Do you think I won't know if you don't say it?" That boy was very happy, and when he went to see you, he lost his soul when he came back, and you told him that you were going to get married? β
Shen Jinqiao didn't answer him, since she guessed it, what else did she say?
Huo Changfeng felt bored when he looked at her like this: "You grew up with him, and you can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart, why are you so ruthless?" β
Shen Jinqiao stared at him, smiling: "I want to ask you, there are so many neighbor brothers who grew up with me since I was a child, why are none of them missing now?" β
Huo Changfeng: "......"
Now it's his turn to be speechless, can he say that he deliberately took it all away?
Isn't it because there is a beautiful and delicious girl at home, isn't he afraid that she will be taken away by wolves? Kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs.
was blocked by his niece and daughter and had nothing to say, how could Huo Changfeng show weakness and immediately shot back: "Qiaoqiao, who is better looking me or the prince?" β
I thought that Shen Jinqiao would be difficult to answer, after all, this girl would never praise her uncle.
However, unexpectedly, Shen Jinqiao replied very simply: "Uncle, you are ...... Where can the prince compare with you? From the little doll at the door to the old aunt ten miles away, who is not dizzy by you and is heartbroken by you, is this comparable to the prince? β
How does this sound like an insult?
Huo Changfeng sneered: "What do you mean by praising the prince in disguise?" β
Shen Jinqiao shook his head violently: "No, I just sincerely feel that my uncle is extraordinarily charming, and no one can compare." β
Hmph, even if she is a sycophant, it can't change the facts.
"Don't be sloppy with me, let's say, do you like the prince?"
Shen Jinqiao looked calm: "I don't like it." β
Huo Changfeng obviously didn't believe it: "The prince is so good, you have sworn to follow him, aren't you fascinated by him?" β
"Mystery what? Does he look better than me, or does he kill people without blinking? β
Huo Changfeng: "......"
Shen Jinqiao replied too calmly, so that he couldn't see anything wrong, his eyes stared at Shen Jinqiao for a moment, trying in vain to see a trace of weakness, but ...... No.
Suddenly felt that what the old man said was a bit unreliable, the prince was really interested in Shen Jinqiao? If there is, I feel that he is quite pitiful, and he is very pitiful when he meets such a girl who does not eat oil and salt......
The two went back to eat one after the other, and Aunt Zhang stewed the small shrimp in red, which was so fragrant that Shen Jinqiao drooled when she smelled it, and when she ate it, Shen Jinqiao couldn't wait to swallow her tongue, it was delicious.
However, Huo Changfeng just can't see the good of others, seeing that Shen Jinqiao is eating well, he has to rush to eat with her, the uncle and nephew are eating and eating chopsticks are fighting, or the old man can't see it on the table and slap the two of them before stopping.
After eating, Shen Jinqiao accompanied the old man to walk around the yard to eliminate food, and when the old man went to take a nap, Shen Jinqiao went back to his attic.
Ming Zhu came in and handed over a letter: "Master, it seems to be your letter." β
Seem?
Shen Jinqiao took it, and there was a word written on the envelope, Shen.
After dismantling, there are four words inside: no obstacles, peace of mind.
Shen Jinqiao looked at it a few times, and it was indeed only four words, plus five words on the cover.
It's really concise, not a drop of ink is wasted.
Especially since there is no payment on it, who sent it and what it means, it's all up to guess.
However, this routine is particularly familiar, and this font is obviously the handwriting of His Royal Highness the Prince, and this meaning is probably to reply to the letter she wrote before.
The meaning is probably not to care about her using his name, so that she can feel at ease.
She wrote to inform her, she really didn't think that the prince would reply to her, which really flattered her.
Shen Jinqiao stayed in Huo's house for five days, which was rare and leisurely, but she still had to prepare to return to Shengjing.
In the five days of the Huo family plus more than half a month since she went to the southwest, she has been out for almost a month, and seeing that the wedding is approaching, she has to go back.
Shen Jinqiao ate with a bowl, hesitating while serving the old man, she was leaving, but she couldn't bear to speak.
She had only been here for a few days and was leaving, but she couldn't accompany him properly, and she was going to get married......
Shen Jinqiao couldn't say anything after eating, but the old man put down the dishes and chopsticks after eating: "Wait a minute, come to the study." β
Shen Jinqiao looked at Huo Changfeng a little and replied, "I heard it." β
After eating, the two went to the master's study together, the old man was drinking tea, Shen Jinqiao went over to take the teapot and poured tea for him: "Grandpa, what did you ask us to do?" β
Huo Changfeng saw the quaint box in the old man's hand at a glance.
Old Man Huo pushed the box in front of Shen Jinqiao: "This is your grandmother's dowry, they are all old things, your mother took half of it, and this half was originally left for your uncle to marry his daughter-in-law, but this unfilial son ......"
Old Man Huo glared at Huo Changfeng fiercely, turned his head and continued to say to Shen Jinqiao: "You take all of these, marrying into the royal family is no better than other families, and you need something to support the faΓ§ade." β
Huo Changfeng: ...... Is the purpose of calling him over to make it easier to stare at him?
Shen Jinqiao naturally knew what it was, and she had naturally seen the same box with her mother's dowry in her hands, which was not gold and silver, but priceless treasure.
"Grandpa, this can't be done, I already have half of my mother, these should be left to my uncle, and you don't have to give your uncle a wife in the future, won't you have to wronged your uncle?"
Huo Changfeng tugged at the corners of his lips: "You don't need to worry about this, you have too many uncles, and you can't tell the difference at all." β
Reached out and took the box and stuffed it into Shen Jinqiao's hand, leaned over and said in her ear: "If you don't take it, the old man will feel even more uncomfortable, take it." β
The elders are indispensable.
Shen Jinqiao wants to get married, or marry a different character, the old man is already uncomfortable, if Shen Jinqiao doesn't accept what he gives, isn't he even more uncomfortable?
Shen Jinqiao took it, knelt on his knees, and kowtowed respectfully: "Thank you, grandpa, no matter where you are in the future, your granddaughter will not forget your teachings, no matter what identity, I will always be your granddaughter." β
It was rare for the old man not to put on a show, and he reached out and touched Shen Jinqiao's head: "You, you are also an unconscious person, although you are very smart, but there are many difficult things in this world, if you can't solve the grievances and come back, your uncle and I will always be there." β
"Grandpa......"
Shen Jinqiao was so moved that she was about to cry, and the old man patted her on the head: "When you leave tomorrow, don't disturb my rest." β
The old man has never said goodbye to his juniors, and when he is older, he can't stand that kind of scene the most.
